There was a very nice, touching thread last night on this story.

Here is a link to the animals in war memorial erected in London (only the Brits would think of this!). A very beautiful memorial to those who “had no choice.”

Link's broken...<(

Here's this, instead.

The Dobermann on the memorial is Kurt, the first dog to die on Guam, after he silently alerted his platoon of 250 soldiers to a hidden enemy machine gun nest, thereby saving all of their lives.

Kurt and his handler were seriously wounded.

The handler survived but Kurt succumbed to his injuries at 3AM that night.
